FAQ

  • What is the best treatment for OCD in New Jersey?

    The most effective treatment for OCD is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy. At Clear Light Therapy, our clinicians are trained in ERP and provide both in-person therapy in Bergen County and secure virtual sessions across New Jersey. ERP helps individuals face fears gradually while resisting compulsions, creating lasting change.

  • Do you offer ERP therapy in Bergen County, NJ?

    Yes. Our Englewood office provides specialized ERP treatment for OCD to clients throughout Bergen County and nearby areas. Whether you’re located in Englewood, Hackensack, Teaneck, or surrounding towns, our practice is easily accessible.

  • Does ERP therapy work virtually in NJ?

    Absolutely. Many of our clients choose virtual ERP therapy, and research shows it’s just as effective as in-person sessions. We provide ERP online to clients across the state of New Jersey so you can access care from the comfort of your home.

  • How long does OCD treatment usually take?

    Treatment length depends on the severity of symptoms and consistency with therapy. Many clients notice improvement within 12–20 sessions, while others benefit from longer-term support.

  • What’s the difference between ERP and regular talk therapy?

    While talk therapy can provide support, ERP is a structured, evidence-based treatment designed specifically for OCD. Instead of only discussing worries, ERP helps you actively face fears and resist compulsions, which leads to lasting recovery.

  • What happens during an ERP session?

    During ERP, you and your therapist identify fears and gradually face them in a controlled way, while learning to resist compulsions. This helps reduce anxiety and break the OCD cycle.

  • Do you treat eating disorders in New Jersey?

    Yes. Clear Light Therapy provides therapy for a wide range of eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and disordered eating patterns.
